Henry came into position as the trucks were all lined up; but as he sat there and waited for the signal, he noticed something... off in the distance, it looked like there was movement in the shadows.

"Who could that be?" thought Henry to himself, but he didn't notice it again and soon enough, it was time to go.

Henry saw the green flag and heard the guard's whistle. Slowly he began moving, and started building up speed. In no time he was on his way down the line

"It'll be a clear run tonight, Henry," his driver told him.

They made their way down the line, stopping at all the scheduled stops and unloading the fish... but little did Henry know that just down the line, something rather uncalled for was about to happen.

Henry was on the way towards the Final station when suddenly the driver cried out and applied the brakes.

"There's something on the line!" The driver called out in terror... Henry closed his eyes in fear and the Driver and Fireman braced themselves as Henry braked hard, desperately hoping he would stop.

He did stop... but not properly, he realized, as he wheels went up, his boiler went sideways, and he landed on the side of the line.

Henry was dazed and confused, wondering what had happened; that was when he called out, "driver! fireman! Are you all right?" Hoping they had jumped clear

His driver and firemen were safe, but had already left for help (Henry had been "out" for quite some time).

When he did not hear a reply, he became concerned, "no, no! I hope they're not still in my cab. I hope they're not...not..." he couldn't even finish the sentence for the thought scared him that much

Henry was overcome with a lonely sense of grief.

Ted and Oscar had been his crew for many years now, and he could not bear the thought of anything happening to them; then, in the distance he saw a row of lights heading towards him... Henry sighed in relief as he began to realize that they were car headlights and rescue was on the way.
